Best of the Crest Awards

Each year, the Student Government Association (SGA) presents awards to outstanding members of the Cedar Crest College community. Awards are given to students in recognition of their contribution to the college for involvement, leadership, creativity, and personal growth as leaders. Three awards also recognize the work of student organizations on campus. Two are given to faculty, staff, or administrator for outstanding contributions to the leadership development of students and clubs and organizations. This year’s Best of the Crest Leadership Ceremony will be held at the Lehigh Valley Country Club on Sunday, April 12, 2015.

In order to ensure that all members of the campus community are considered for awards, SGA encourages everyone to take the time to nominate those who have made a significant contribution to the Cedar Crest College community. Self-nominations will not be accepted. Student accomplishments that are the result of paid work are eligible, if the nominator can explain how the nominee has gone above and beyond the expectations of the position.

To submit a nomination, please click on the award title. All nominations are due February 20, 2015 by 4:30 p.m. Award recipients are chosen by a committee composed of faculty/staff and students.
